What?! No Wednesday Special?
Guess not! But that doesn't mean Wednesday itself isn't special!
I'm going to make it special by telling you a little about myself...
I went to my first Longaberger party in April of 1999. I saw a lot of awesome products and a lot of dollar signs. I decided that I could best help my friend (the hostess) by signing up to host my own party. Which I did in May - I wanted the Daisy Basket in the worst way! I invited my friends and my previous hostesses friends and had a $500 show. Got lots of free stuff and the ever important Daisy Basket! (It's still my favorite.)
I attended a few more parties after that and ordered a few more things. In October, my consultant called me and said that the company had a new business kit, it was about half the price of the original kit...would I be interested in signing up? Um, sure! So, I signed my contract, booked my first 6 shows and off I went. I did parties for my friends and my parents friends and friends of friends and even a few complete strangers. It was fun! AND I made a little money. The first thing I bought with "my" money was a TV and VCR for our bedroom; and I've still got 'em!
So, that was over 10 years ago. What have I done since then? Well, I had a baby, quit my full time job, moved to PA, had another baby, managed to survive infant and toddler-hood and am now in the stage of life where my "babies" are in school all day. I know - where did the time go?! All along the way, I've had my "business", which had kind of dwindled down to, "Hey, Mom, whatcha want this month?" But, never-the-less, I'm still here!
After the BEE this year, I decided that since I was going to have "so much time" on my hands with both kids being in school, I really wanted to treat my business like a business. So, I'm joining local business associations, looking into Craft Fairs, telling all my friends about what I have to offer. And I'm still having fun!
Right now, Longaberger is offering YOU the opportunity to try out being a consultant. And it costs you NOTHING. Not a PENNY! Sign a contract and off you go. You get a free website to promote yourself, too. What have you got to lose? Right, NOTHING! Check it out - it's the only business that you can take with you, that you can set on the back burner and come back to anytime, that is available on YOUR time and where you can work in your pajamas!
What do you think? Ready to try?

New Twist on Tax on Shipping
I just learned this today and thought I would share this tidbit....
Shipping is not taxable when the shipment becomes the property of the buyer at the time it leaves the loading dock. That means that the buyer is responsible for any damage en route. Filing for insurance relief is the buyer's responsibility and is a very time consuming frustration.
Shipping is taxable in most states when the shipment remains the property of the shipper until it is received. That means that Longaberger owns the shipment until the hostess receives it. Any damage or shortage is the responsibility of the Longaberger Company. Consultants can file adjustments to get problems taken care of, on behalf of the hostess. Infinitely more convenient for our customers. This is the most customer friendly system.
Tax on shipping is a small price to pay for such convenience.
Thanks to Denise Swyers for sharing!

Tailgating
So, I spent the majority of my day today at the World's Largest RV Show in Hershey, PA. Had a blast! Saw some really nice campers. We went in to look at one specific model and ended up finding another one we like even more....isn't that how it always is?!
Anyway, my post today is inspired by my RV friends. As a family, we use the trailer to go camping (duh), but my husband likes to take it up to Buffalo and tailgate with his buddies before the game(s). For all you tailgaters out there...how dedicated are you? Did you know you could serve your entire tailgate meal in Longaberger products? We carry the full like of Collegiate and NFL teams with all the appropriate color combinations and tie-ons!

Signature Weave
About 4/5 months ago, we had an online special featuring a Market Basket with "Signature Weave". Did you grab one? If you did - you not only got a great deal (go you!), but you also started collecting the newest basket weave line.
Longaberger's Signature Weave features the three stain colors, Warm, Rich and Deep Brown as upsplints, but also as a very small part of the woven sides. The result is a very unique, very awesome design.
With the new Wishlist that debuted September 1, we've introduced three baskets in Signature Weave to the regular line:
Medium Market Basket: with two swinging handles w/ copper rivets and reinforced woven bottom.
Village Basket: with two leather straps w/ brushed nickel rivets and buckles and reinforced woven bottom.
Small Laundry Basket: with two cutout handles and reinforced woven bottom. (Quick note - the original basket form for this basket was introduced in 1979 and retired in 1998. Previously purchased protectors will work with this returning favorite.)
